Split pot and plant: cyclamen split tuber propagation map

Cyclamen can propagate young plants by dividing pots or plants, and cultivate more potted plants. The ramet of cyclamen can be called bulb or cutting tuber propagation, and the tools need to be sterilized before cutting tuber, and the ramet should be carried out in spring after anthesis. This is because the spring weather is relatively cool, the temperature is suitable, in such a climatic environment for tuber cutting operation is not easy to infect bacteria, the wound is not easy to rot, as long as the ramet after watering enough.

So, how to divide the cyclamen into tubers for reproduction and breeding? In fact, this process is relatively simple, as long as you can master the details and skills. Now let's get up and have a look.

First, prepare materials

Knives, potassium permanganate solution or medical alcohol, plant ash or sulfur powder, cyclamen tubers, flowerpots, plain sand, etc.

Second, split plant time

The propagation of ramet (cutting tuber) of cyclamen should be completed from August to September every autumn, which can be combined with changing basin and soil.

3. Ramet process

The previous editor has introduced to you that the ramet propagation of cyclamen is actually the process of cutting its tubers and then implanting them into the soil to cultivate young plants. The specific operations are as follows:

1. Tool disinfection

Wipe the cutting tool evenly with medical alcohol, or soak the tool with 5% potassium manganate diluent for the purpose of disinfecting and sterilizing the tool.

2. Cutting tubers

First of all, the tubers are longitudinally cut into blocks according to the distribution of buds to ensure that each bulb has at least one bud, and it is intact and healthy.

3. Wound disinfection

After cutting the tuber, we need to use the previously prepared plant ash or sulfur powder to disinfect the wound, usually the plant ash or sulfur will be directly applied to the wound.

4. Planting in pots

Taking into account the permeability of the culture soil, it is recommended to use plain sand as the basin soil, because cyclamen tuber planting does not need to use fertile soil, because the fertile soil contains a variety of impurities, so it is more likely to cause wound infection. After treating the wound of the tuber and waiting for the wound to dry, we can implant the tuber into the basin.

5. Maintenance and management

After planting the cyclamen tuber, as long as the later maintenance is properly managed, it can take root and sprout after about 1 month. When the new leaves grow smoothly, we can take the ball to change the basin and change the soil and turn to the normal maintenance and management stage, and it can be spent in the same year. Cyclamen pots should be divided on cloudy days, and water should be watered on the first day before the basin is divided, then the soil should be loosened the next day, and then the cyclamen plant should be taken out and finally separated from the root tuber.
